BYNG

This is my 5^th year at Byng High School, and my 3^rd year teaching theatre classes.  I currently teach competitive speech, stagecraft, and drama. I'm also the FCA sponser for Byng High School.

From 2002-2005, I taught K-3 music at Purcell Elementary. In 2005, I resigned from teaching to work at home. From 2005-2012 I was a stay at home mom, worked in a day-care, was a nanny, had a licensed home day care, and was a children's pastor (not all at the same time). And in 2012, when my second son started Pre-k, I began working at Byng High School.

In 2002, the same year I graduated college and began teaching, I met and married Sid Griffin.  We have 4 children who simultaniously are the joys of my life and make me lose my mind.  Elijah, my oldest, is a 10th grader at Byng High School.  He is a super genious.  Ezekiel, my wild man, is a 6th grader at Byng Elementary this year.  And then we have our little Ezra. Ezra is in PreK at Francis. And Eden, our baby, is one year old and is beautiful, sassy, and a precious answered prayer.  Our family pets include our old Dutch Shepherd, Possum; our 8 year old mutt, Coon; our 3 year old rescue Albino Boston Terrier, Jack; and our new baby manx kitty.

When I'm not teaching, holding rehearsals, at speech competition, or doing a school fundraiser, you can find me spending time with my family, attending baseball games, working out, reading, journaling, or watching television.
